WHERE IN THE WORLD:
Astro*Carto*Graphy and Relocation
As reviewed in Dell Horoscope.

One of the most exciting astrological innovations
over the last few decades has been the development of
AstroCartoGraphy. Based on the recognition that planets
near the horoscope's angles dominate the chart,
AstroCartoGraphy (A*C*G) maps reflect the locations
around the world where specific planets would be angular.
These locations appear as lines on the global map, and
describe planetary influences according to the projected
horoscope. Jim Lewis first popularized AstroCartoGraphy
with the notion that you can change your fortune by
changing your location. Looking for love? Move to where a
Venus line is angular. Want to become famous? Your Sun
line shows where this becomes possible.

Astrologer Erin Sullivan's practice has taken her all
over the world, and so she naturally investigated relocation
astrology by using ACG maps. In 1997 she gave a seminar
about what she has learned, and now these lectures have
been published under the title Where in the World?
Sullivan's expertise in relocation themes mixes well with
her knowledge-base in other astrological areas.
Intermediate to advanced astrologers will be entertained
and educated by the material presented here, and come
away with a new respect for the art of interpretation
according to location.

The first half of Where in the World is devoted to
explaining the techniques and delineating the effects of the
individual planets. One of the most important concepts is
the idea of mundane squares, known as parans. For
example, even if you don't have Sun - Jupiter aspect in
your natal horoscope, somewhere on the globe your Sun
line intersects with your Jupiter line, creating a specific
location where you may experience the effects of a
Sun-Jupiter combination. The Sun-Jupiter influence is
particularly fortunate, and one may find success an
material blessings here, or possibly the meaning of life or
at least a better understanding of one's personal mission.

Other fascinating concepts are sprinkled throughout
the pages. Most notably, readers are introduced to how
transits and progressions can be mapped (known as
Cyclo*Carto*Graphy or C*C*G), and how to rectify a
horoscope using A*C*G. As an example of rectification,
Sullivan investigates Princess Diana's competing
horoscopes, concluding that the Libra Rising chart is most
accurate. Another significant concept explained is the shadowed planet. An example of this would be Mars in
the horoscope of serial killer Andrew Cunanan. In an
amazing demonstration of the accuracy of A*C*G maps,
Cunanan first killed when he left his comfortable Moon
line in California and moved under a Mars influence in
Milwaukee. His murder spree followed precisely his Mars
line extending through Chicago and Minneapolis, and
culminating in Florida where he killed designer Gianni
Versace, and then finally himself.

The second half of Where in the World gets into
individual cases. What actually happens when someone
relocates to a Pluto line? Sigmund Freud's chart is
explored, with discussion centering around his angular
Pluto. Audience members share their stories, with Sullivan
providing psychological and astrological insights. Solar
returns, progressed lunations, and other interpretive
techniques are used when looking at relocated planets. Readers will undoubtedly have many "Aha!" experiences while following along the amazing examples from public and CPA student's A*C*G and then to their actual relocation horoscopes.
